CENTER VALLEY, Pa., (September 7, 2018) – Olympus, a global technology leader in designing and delivering innovative solutions for medical and surgical procedures, among other core businesses, announced today it is hosting a live webinar entitled “Improving Procedural Awareness Utilizing ScopeGuide” presented by Dr. Steven Lichtenstein.

ScopeGuide, the world’s only technology providing a real-time 3D representation of the shape and position of the colonoscope inside the colon, is designed to improve procedural efficiency and increase patient comfort during a colonoscopy. More than just a teaching tool, it allows physicians to recognize when the scope is looping and has the ability to better determine the anatomical location within the colon, providing benefits to both GI Fellows and established Physicians.

"I truly look forward to presenting this live webinar and sharing my passion for utilizing ScopeGuide for every colonoscopy I perform.” said Dr. Steven Lichtenstein, DO. “The benefits of using ScopeGuide extend far beyond just visualizing loops. It unequivocally allows for a more efficient and educational procedure not only for physicians and staff, but ultimately benefiting the patients."

Dr. Lichtenstein is a gastroenterologist with over 20 years of experience.
